There’s two things that are very simple and very important, that I’m looking for in this app and apps like this.

1.) Length and Width basic derivation of simple objects like the sizing of a foot for example.

2.) Tracking of the object like if the foot is moving for example.

So, I’d like a tool that can find the best fit bounding box to obtain length and width quickly and easily for all users.

And, I suppose I’d like/wish for some magical motion tracking reflective sticker dots or something where the software can track or buffer some motion during capture. :pray:t4: :face_holding_back_tears:

Also, I’m not seeing a way to trim the scan data. I think it’s very important to be able to do this.

I’m not seeing a way to do dimensions. Idk what’s wrong with the version I have installed…

ok, so I was able to select the object and inspect…

I wish the bounding box had some sort of more interaction. I’d like to be able to adjust the orientation of the bounding box relative to the object of interest being measured.

Your best bet is to install the latest WIP build from Testflight and use the DimAligned command.
Automatically finding the tightest bounding box around an object is not in the scope of iRhino.

I think that problem is best solved with a custom script or gh definition which potentially can be solved remotely on a compute server from the App.

You have an Appstore build installed, you need to install a build from Testflight to have the WIP features like commandline

Are you imagining an augmented reality mode in which the foot is tracked?

A similar request was made for hand tracking: RV-1168 Hand tracking AR mode

Not necessarily using AR, but rather just cause I noticed that the scanning interface is establishing a fixed location that the ‘object to be scanned’ must reside in prior to and during the scanning.

I think that this is odd, since the scanner is moving then why not allow the object that is being scanned to also move?

Indeed there must be a way to track it like the use of those proverbial reflector dot stickers that other hand-held scanners rely on.

Or something else like it, such as what the movie industry uses to track the actions of actors/actresses etc.

Point being, like if you were scanning a foot, and the foot were to move slightly during the scan, it would be advantageous if such movements were not a problem per say.

We’re using Apple’s Object Capture API for scanning and it requires the object to remain in the same position while scanning. Not much we can do here
